* MisaimedMarketing: The book is most famous as a children's book for elementary school students, but the scientific concepts are more suitable for middle-school or high-school students. This is particularly true for the other books in the series, which incorporate cellular-level biology concepts (''A Wind in the Door'') and theoretical physics (''A Swiftly Tilting Planet'').
